Apple Pencil

My Apple Pencil is connected to my IPad and it’s a 1st Apple Pencil. However, although it is connected, the Pencil will not charge at all. I bought it today and was disappointed to find this. I’m extremely disappointed especially with how much I paid to get it and it will not work. My iPad is up to date as well. It’s a problem with my Pencil not charging.

Apple Pencil Second Generation I have an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil 2nd generation. My pencil is always connected, charged, and used regularly. However, I have noticed when I want to use my pencil is was lagging and connecting and disconnecting frequently. I attacked it back to my ipad to check the percentage and it does not show. I went into my settings and it said it was disconnected, I connected it again and it disconnected not even after two minutes of using it. I checked its battery percentage and it was low. But when I placed it on my ipad to charge it was not charging and now it wont charge or connect to my ipad. I have no idea how to fix this issue.

Well, if you already tried (to no avail) to follow ALL the steps provided in these support articles:--> Connect Apple Pencil with your iPad - Apple Support

and/or:--> Charge your Apple Pencil and check the battery - Apple Support

return that pencil where you bought it, and have it replaced, or ask for a refund.
